During the past 48 hours since I left my little Cape Cod paradise, I have gone from clutter queen to simplified. Now, I definitely wouldn't be nominated for hoarders (I bless the women who enter the houses of those people and save them!!), but it was getting a little of hand. Now when you have lived in three houses for some 15 years, chances are that you accumulate a decent amount of worthless stuff. I have Knicks knacks from every place imaginable (save Bali and India, haha Elizabeth Gilbert). I had clothes that would fill my car, some shies of course. And I had books and school files and pictures and old cards. 48 hours later, I had six boxes of stuff including frames and books and about three carfuls of trash. I fit all my clothes, well 90% in two huge bins.
By. The way, if you ever have to do an overhaul like such, I recommend you call Denise Bruce, my mother. The woman is crazy. She can give away things like I never seen. She cut my closet in half in about 16 minutes without breaking a sweat. It's like her eye scans to the clothes she knoWs I haven't worn in over 6 months. Well, three trash bags later...
During this adventure, I found 20 Jordanian Dinars, 120 Urguayan Pesos and 112 Romanian Euros. Now, all this adds up to about 55 bucks which is nothing special. Why the jordanian dinar is writhe more an the dollar is beyond me, but at least the uruguayan peso evens it all out.
If you want to enjoy a sweet summer drink...
Grey goose vodka
Cointreau
Mango lemonade juice
Blended blueberries
Fresh squeezed lime, to taste
We call it the dini-tini in honor of Auntie Dena turning a special age!! The exact number cannot be mentioned on the internet.
1 week until Europe. I started packing my backpack today, I expect a mental breakdown due to a lack of shoes and clothes during mid-September.
